Dr. Pepper will give away free can to everyone in the U.S. if Axl Rose finally gets Chinese Democracy on the shelves in 2008.
We've had SNL alumni nominated for Academy Awards (Bill Murray is the only name coming to mind), but Al Franken could be the first to seek a U. S. Senate seat. And since it's only been a decade since Minnesotans elected Jesse The Body Ventura as governor, don't laugh him off yet.
Somehow, I think the odds were better when Taco Bell dropped a round target into the Pacific Ocean and promised everyone in America a free taco if a piece of the Mir Space Station hit it.
Stick around, folks. We've got a lot more coming up this week. First I'll hammer out some record reviews later this week (Drive-By Truckers, She and Him, Raconteurs).
There's a review of the Stars concert at Nashville's Belcourt Theatre posted at Dave's local music site.
The world media continue their collective lovefest with the Boston Red Yanks .... er, Sox, I might have to remind them a few other teams might actually show up for 162 games this season. Baseball isn't inspiring me this season. With the Indians entering their 60th season without a World Championship, maybe I'm just tired of rooting for this prick tease of a baseball team. They choked away a chance at the World Series last year, might not even win their division this year and their best pitcher in a generation is almost certain to flee for the big bucks.
We've got four training weeks left till Runner's Christmas (Music City Half Marathon) and the first-ever race within walking distance of my house. I can almost see the starting line from my front window, so there will be no excuses for sleeping in ... or crashing back to sleep 30 minutes after I finish.

Ha ha ha. You're down on the Tribe because they "might not even win their division"???
A winning record for the Reds would make me happy this year. They haven't even seen that since 2000.
They were a game away from the Series, made no changes to the team while Detroit mortgaged their farm system for Dontrelle Willia and Miguel "Lil' Manny" Carbrera. I think I have reason to be worried.
Besides, your team has won a series in your lifetime (two actually, but only one that you'd remember). My dad turns 60 in June, and the Indians haven't won since he was four months old.
